Is your landlord really inspecting the caulk that closely? Feels like most of them just glance around and hand back whatever they feel like keeping.

Whoa, honestly Backblaze tests consumer junk, not datacenter SAS, so your stats are probably skewed!

The whole "experience it fresh" thing is wild to me because she already chose to read the book, right? Like, you cant un-read something by wearing earplugs to a discussion about it, that just doesnt make sense. Did she actually finish the book before the meeting, or was she planning to read it after and just wanted zero input from anyone? Because if she had already read it, then getting mad about the setting is a huge overreaction, thats not even a spoiler, thats just basic context. And if she hadnt read it yet, why even come to the meeting at all? Thats like showing up to a movie theater and covering your eyes during the trailers because you dont want to know what other movies exist.
